Competency & Credentialing Institute (CCI) operates as an independent certifying board in the hospitals and health care sector. Based in Littleton, Colorado, it administers credentials including CNOR, CSSM, CFPN CNAMB, CNSC-P, and NPDA-BC, and it provides nursing education resources and certificate programs tailored to the perioperative environment. Its primary customers are hospitals and other healthcare institutions looking to hire and develop a well-informed, prepared, and certified perioperative nursing staff while fostering a culture of safety in the operating room. The organization positions itself as a credentialing and education provider within the hospital and health care industry, focused on perioperative care. A recent development is the launch of CNOR Specialty Designations at the start of 2026 to recognize the diverse expertise of its certified perioperative nurses.
